Lio Rush

 

Lio Rush began his pro wrestling career in late 2014 and quickly moved up the ranks in the indies thanks to his awe-inspiring speed in the ring. Working for promotions like ROH and CZW, Rush was signed by WWE in 2017. He bounced between 205 Live and NXT before heading to the main roster to primarily manage Bobby Lashley. He would head back to NXT in 2019 and won the NXT Cruiserweight Championship. He was among WWE's budget cuts during the COVID-19 pandemic in April of 2020. After two brief retirements from pro wrestling, Rush signed with AEW in September of 2021, but his contract expired in early 2022.
